  • Snapshot
    • A 28-year-old male was hit by a car while crossing the road. He sustained abrasions to the face, hands, and bruising over both iliac crests. Blood pressure is 90/55 mmHg and pulse is 110/min. Two large bore IVs are inserted and he was given 1L of Lactated Ringer's, and 2L of crossmatched pRBCs. Scrotal and perineal ecchymosis and swelling, blood at the urethral meatus, and bladder distension up to the umbilicus are present. AP radiographs of the pelvis reveal pelvic fracture (bilateral pubic rami fracture). Retrograde cystourethrogram shows a torn posterior urethra; a suprapubic catheter and a pelvic binder are applied.
  • Introduction
    • Genitourinary trauma involves kidney, bladder, and/or urethra
    • 80% is from blunt trauma (MVCs, assaults, falls, crush) vs 20% penetrating (GSW/SW)
    • Blunt trauma to genitourinary organs is associated with pelvic fracture in 97% cases
  • Evaluation
    • Pelvis: radiograph with AP, inlet, and outlet views
    • Bladder: urinalysis, urethrogram, retrograde cystoscopy +/- cystogram
    • Ureter: retrograde ureterogram
    • Kidney: intravenous pyelogram, CT scan (if hemodynamically stable)
